This is a great hotel, definitely 4 star and possibly 5star. Superclean and well-maintained. We stayed in the Signature Ocean Suite with Balcony (bedroom with separate kitchen/sitting room and balcony overlooking the pool and ocean) which was very nice (although balcony is small, standing room only, maybe squeeze two chairs in). Great staff, great reception area with 2 decked balconies and seating, great to sit with a drink and enjoy views of the ocean. The bar & pool area, restaurant are very nice, again overlooking the ocean. Great breakfast, good wifi (passworded), area around hotel is scenic, safe, very nice walks along the ocean and cliff-side road towards Camps Bay. Hotel offers free shuttle to V&A waterfront, and Camps Bay-very useful. Also, the red Citytour bus has a stop outside the hotel- really good value tourist bus around Cape Town, great commentary, very informative. The hotel can also arrange activities such as daytrips to Cape point, Stellenbosch, shark dives, penguin colony. Nearby Regent Road has a selection of shops, supermarkets, bars and restaurants. Taxi is about 30 minutes from Airport. Uber works in South Africa, and much cheaper than UK, so journey from airport to Hotel is cheap. Airport taxis are more expensive (about 500 rand). Overall highly recommended hotel!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was clean & professional looking and all staff were very friendly. Facilities were generally top notch and the rooms were of a generous size, very clean and bed was a dream to sleep in. Breakfast buffet was great, however when eating outside you have to be very vigilant as there are birds constantly swooping around trying to steal bits of food from your plate, the hotel needs to work on that. Lastly, gym could have been bigger with a bit more equipment. Also I would just highlight the hotel felt more built for families and couples perhaps. Overall a pleasant stay.
